thank you all so much for your responses I really appreciate them.
I only took a very small flake of dex once, but my metabolism is VERY sensitive and I can only take a small crumb of whatever med I am taking and still get a big effect. I am currently taking about 1 mg of a beta blocker spread out over a day which does help a lot with reducing the dex related symptoms.
I have tried Zyprexa which was ok but I could still feel the effects of the dex through it and it felt very uncomfortable.
the pdoc who prescribed it for me had no idea. My current doc has tried Zyprexa and bblockers.
The dex related rush doesnt feel like a panic/anxiety rush, it feels like an overdose of something, like my head is full of some chemical , just like when I took the dex 3 months ago. I have tried to have a med holiday but it is extremely uncomfortable and scary, so beta blockers it is for the time being.
feeling a bit better from the hope that all your suggestions have given me.
